Vinyl Grading (NM) under bright LED lights I can see the lightest of sleeve removal scuffs this record looks unplayed, I played it through and it played great, no sticks/jumps or feelable scratches, Top Vinyl!

SleeveGrading (EX++) - Silver Matt finish Gatefold with minimal wear (Please see photos for complete overview)


Packing Details – Every record will have the following:

  • Records placed separate from sleeve to avoid knifing

  • Sleeve and Vinyl placed in Polythene outer

  • 2x 12” Card stiffeners to protect from bending

  • Sealed in bubble wrap for extra protection

  • placed in cruciform professional record mailer


Gradings: I use the standard UK gradings as set out in UK Record Collector Magazine below:

MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

Near Mint,  EX+, VG+ etc are acceptable additions to help `fine tune` descriptions for the buyer
